Romney has the experience and has proven he knows how to turn things around and make it work, and the clueless Obots are attacking him for doing just that.
Hello again, Steve:
I don't know if you saw the Romney add where this guy BOUGHT the same BS you bought. Anyway, in the add, he talked about how HE built his business, and NOBODY else did. How could that commie Obama say such a thing? You know the schtick..
But, when confronted with the TRUTH about what Obama said, turns out he agrees with him. Whatdya know about that?

PS> Ready to discuss some SUBSTANCE, or do you want to continue on THIS route??
Someone that knows how to run a business, a state, the Olympics instead of someone who knows how to run his mouth. With a teleprompter that is. Just my opinion.Quote:

Obama ad claims Romney misquoted him, then plays Obama saying those words
You can't make this stuff up.Quote:
0:10—Romney: “He said this: ‘If you’ve got a business—you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.’”
0:18—Text appears on the screen reading “The only problem?” followed by “That’s not what he said.”
0:39—Obama: “If you’ve got a business—you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.”

Do you know the difference between misquoting and taking stuff out of context?? Are you SOO wedded to this IMPOSSIBLE position that you cannot see daylight??
It's becoming increasingly obvious that Romney is willing to plumb the depths of deceit and dishonor - something John McCain was UNWILLING to do...
Romney is a scumbag. He's drek.

By shutting down businesses, selling assets to China and enriching his own personal wealth. That's exactly what you'll get with him. Have fun!Quote:

He honestly believes that the biblical principal of being one's "brother's keeper" is tied to government and not the voluntary, selfless, personal sacrifice one person makes for another. To him "society" is synonymous with "government" instead of the voluntary, personal, interactive relationships we have with others. This is why he doesn't care if the church can no longer serve people as it has for millennia, doesn't care if the church has to compromise its principles, he believes more collective good comes from government.
So yes, when he said those words meant them exactly as we've presented which is why he doth protest, he knows the average American not of his progressive base takes offense. It was a rare - and unintended I'm sure - moment of candor. But the fact is we're right and we should be offended because society is not government, government is not the genesis of entrepreneurial success, government is not our brother's keeper.
Government is a cold, heartless, necessary evil best kept in check. That used to be a point of view you expressed regularly. Well, it's something you flip flop on from day to day.
I guess you guys are just blind to what's going on now, but thankfully those "far right blogs" are doing the job the media won't do.Quote:

What you also MISS, in your diatribe above, is that you're ADDRESSING somebody who is to the LEFT of president Obama. Interestingly enough, I don't support ANY of the leftist ideals you ascribe to Obama. How do you account for that?
In the REAL world, Obama has STRENGTHENED the safety net to include more people who would have been on their own without it. Beyond that, he's governed from the center.
I suggest that right wingers HATE the safety net SOOO much, that they think ANY strengthening of it, is communism run amuck.. But, my friend, those feelings stem from your IDEOLOGY, NOT Obama.. You can be cured of that.

That's the problem ex, same with Obama - a language barrier. He says brother's keeper and I understand that the traditional way, me taking of my brother. He means taking my money so he can take care of my brother.
And I love a safety net, all conservatives love a safety net, because if we can't be a brother's keeper to everyone then someone needs to do it. The church, the government someone. We just happen to KNOW the church and the private sector is infinitely more efficient with our money than the government and the safety net is to catch those who've fallen, not those who haven't.
Yeah, I guess Rush was stretching it when he suggested Dems might try to make a connection to Bane, that as Rush said that day "there are some people who think it will work."Quote:

Romney's new foe: Batman's 'Bane'
July 16, 2012
His summer's much-anticipated Hollywood blockbuster, "The Dark Knight Rises," is getting an unusual boost from Democrats and other foes of Mitt Romney who are eager to tie the Gotham crushing villain to the GOP presidential candidate. Their angle: the mask-wearing, "Venom" gas breathing bad guy has a name that sounds just like Romney's former investment firm that President Obama has been blasting as a jobs killer.
"Bane" is the terrorist in the new movie who drives the caped crusader out of semi-retirement in the final Batman movie. Democrats, who believe they have Romney on the ropes over the president's assault on his leadership at Bain Capital, said the comparisons are too rich to ignore.
"It has been observed that movies can reflect the national mood," said Democratic advisor and former Clinton aide Christopher Lehane. "Whether it is spelled Bain and being put out by the Obama campaign or Bane and being out by Hollywood, the narratives are similar: a highly intelligent villain with offshore interests and a past both are seeking to cover up who had a powerful father and is set on pillaging society," he added.
As the Friday release date has neared, liberal blogs were the first to connect Batman's toughest foe with Romney's firm.
Looks like Rush was right. I wonder if they'll feel any remorse for such puerile behavior in light of what happened in Colorado?
I live in Texas, and the businesses here are in the middle of no where, but they all have access to a road to somewhere. The state makes sure of that, MY tax dollars to help a business make money for someone. If you don't have a road, you submit a request to your local government before you put a business in the middle of no where. That's how its done in my part of Texas.
My confusion Speech, is you take an edited political ad seriously, and refuse to acknowledge the ORIGINAL version. Or that Romney said the same thing, almost verbatim.
Its called editing, and repubs are good at it. We are too, hehehe! But why argue over contrived assertions based on deceit when you can argue the facts?
I think the people who have 70% of the wealth should pay 70% of the burden for what we all need, don't you? Lets argue that instead of a cut up version of what a guy said.
Careful with your response because I may edit it to make sense.
They do already .A small fraction of high-income taxpayers pay the vast majority of all the taxes collected,
Top 1 Percent: How Much Do They Earn? | Bankrate.com
How can you ignore the reasons there are more people who have not weathered a great reccesion as well as others?
Getting the Facts Straight on America's Tax Burden | The White House
So while they pay more they earn more, and have deductions that lower their burden. In effect you can pay NOTHING on a billion dollars.
Face it tal .You are not interested in taxing income ;you want to tax wealth ;and your goal is NOT to fund the government as much as it is to 'level the playing field ' in the interest of 'fairness ';even as your policies hurts the econpmy.
Like what policy to be specific? Name one, so we can have a factual debate, without unfounded assertions, from broad based FEAR.
Oh wait, never mind. You still believe that the ones who were bailed out and still profit from the start of the recession, and have shipped jobs overseas for 30 years should have even more money.
